5.                                       HDCC has complied, in all material respects, with the applicable servicing criteria as of December 31, 2010 and for the Reporting Period****with respect to the Platform taken as a whole;

 

6.                                       HDCC has not identified and is not aware of any material instance of noncompliance by the Vendors with the applicable servicing criteria as of December 31, 2010 and for the Reporting Period with respect to the Platform taken as a whole;

 

7.                                       HDCC has not identified any material deficiency in its policies and procedures to monitor the compliance by the Vendors with the applicable servicing criteria as of December 31, 2010 and for the Reporting Period with respect to the Platform taken as a whole**;**and

 

8.                                       Ernst & Young LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, has issued an attestation report on HDCC’s assessment of compliance with the applicable servicing criteria for the Reporting Period.
